The restaurant and grill was closed. So you had to bring your own food and drinks. Which wouldn’t be an issue except the fact that we didn’t know about this till we got to the course and read the note on the entrance door. At the least have a cooler with water and ice available in the club house with it being in the mid 90’s. The course looks a lot better than it did the last time I played there.
Nice course
Everything was great!
Whoever placed the cups that day is pure evil!
Keep up the good work!
Classic
Tee box - fine, but hard
Fairways - dried out but got extra roll
Bunkers - some not great
Greens - way better than expected
Paid $24 and had my kids with me. We were the only people out there so tons of time to run around and take our time.
It’s also quite windy there so the heat want too bad.
Rained out after 9 holes
Good round of golf for 9 holes until rain & thunder arrived.
Sandy greens
Course was dry and The 1st 3 fairways weren't underwater, that was a plus. The greens, however, we're very sandy as it looks like they were recently punched. Course also kept their water coolers filled and the water actually tasted good...another plus. Overall had a good time and will continue to come back. :My 3-star rating isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Good course
Fairways still need work. Greens were in pretty good condition.
Bayou
Great golf course, wished they had the food/drink station open.
Best value on the gulf by far
Bayou is a hidden gem for the recreational golfer. $18 for twilight with a cart? Are you kidding me? Best value around, by far. The front 9 fairways are beat up and are missing large patches of grass, but it's in the middle of a saltwater bay, so it has to be so hard to maintain. But the grass that was there (which is most of it), it was plenty fine to hit off of. We just lifted and placed on the nearest grass, no big deal. The water makes it challenging but the views are fantastic. Greens were in good shape, as were the tee boxes. The back 9 was a totally different story. It's not next to the bay but has some ponds. Back 9 was in very good shape which is saying a lot given the heat and the salt water nearby. I'll definitely be back.

Bring a snorkel
Played day after a rain storm. Cart path only. Standing water all over the place. Only course I have ever lost a ball in the fairway due to water conditions. Greens were solid though! Back nine was a confusing lay out for a first timer. Need better signs to find a couple of tees. Would have been lost without the gps. Fun course other than the extra water hazards
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for acknowledging our solid greens and fun course. We apologize for the water conditions during your game and appreciate your feedback on our signage and course layout.
Front 9 fairways
It’s almost impossible for them to get them in order. Not all are bad and I don’t blame them. It’s right on the water and floods out when it rains. Back nine is pretty good. Would recommend cause it’s not pricey at all

Not bad for the price
Several fairways just unplayable as they were just mud. Yes it has recently rained hard, but the conditions weren't just from the recent rain

Coastal public course
Rough fairways. Many fairways areas missing grass. Poor drainage after heavy rains, may be the cause. Greens, most were in fair to good shape. Tee boxes are all rough. All in need of sand. Decent golf carts. Nice driving range and practice area. Nice layout, no development houses around the course. That was nice. Just coastal breezes.

Not Bad!!
It’s not a bad course, has more that a few dog legs holes (left and right) very playable and challenging. first few holes the fair ways and greens need attention. Once you get to the back nine the fairways and greens get a little better. Also if you don’t do well in high winds might want to check the weather before going, there some are pretty tight fairways and lots of water.
